Even though I’m in Peru now, I sometimes miss my hometown San Antonio, TX (minus the politics of course). Hands down there is the best Tex-Mex and my Dad’s garden.

What is special about your hometown?

    Different from bobsledding it looks like! Wow it would be nice if the muni fixed the potholes as winter weather can take its toll on roads. Regardless, it looks beautiful!

      Mhmm! I can’t fault the village, though. I don’t know what their finances look like but I can imagine they’re just getting by exactly because there are little to no “modern” things popping up. The newest visible addition was a supermarket (think Aldi, not WalMart) relatively far outside the village center. I wouldn’t be surprised if the council/mayor purposely keeps big investors like this out. The advantage: It keeps its “German rural village” charme and aesthetic over literal decades Disadvantage: Probably little money to fix anything but the most pressing issues.
